Redwood Complex Fire: 19,000 Acres, 0% Contained

The Redwood Complex Fire, which began less than 24 hours ago, gobbled up approximately 19,000 acres already and fire crews have not managed to contain even one edge of the blaze which has destroyed at least 80 structures and killed at least one person.

“[Cell] phone and landlines are not functioning,” said Tricia Austin, Fire Prevention Specialist I with Cal Fire explaining why it is difficult to get information out to the public.
